Answer:

Decreases

Explanation:

Ideal gas law:

PV = nRT

where P is absolute pressure,

V is volume,

n is number of moles,

R is gas constant,

and T is absolute temperature.

If V is constant and T decreases, then P must decrease.

A cylinder of mass 14.0 kg rolls without slipping on a horizontal surface. At a certain instant its center of mass has a speed o

aev [14]

Answer:

a) 567J

b) 283.5J

c)850.5J

Explanation:

The expression for the translational kinetic energy is,

$E_r = \frac{1}{2} mv^2$

Substitute,

14kg for m

9m/s for v

$E_r = \frac{1}{2} (14) (9)^2\\= 567J$

The translational kinetic energy of the center of mass is 567J

(B)

The expression for the rotational kinetic energy is,

$E_R = \frac{1}{2} Iw^2$

The expression for the moment of inertia of the cylinder is,

$I = \frac{1}{2} mr^2$

The expression for angular velocity is,

$w = \frac{v}{r}$

substitute

1/2mr² for I

and vr for w

in equation for rotational kinetic energy as follows:

$E_R = (\frac{1}{2}) (\frac{1}{2} mr^2)(\frac{v}{r} )^2$

$= \frac{mv^2}{4}$

$E_R = \frac{14 \times 9^2 }{4} \\\\= 283.5J$

The rotational kinetic energy of the center of mass is 283.5J

(c)

The expression for the total energy is,

$E = E_r + E_R\\\\$

substitute 567J for E(r) and 283.5J for E(R)

$E = 567J + 283.5\\= 850.5J$

The total energy of the cylinder is 850.5J
